Surely, if it's a question of encouraging and facilitating illegality - then the record company that released "The Chronic" should be prosecuted for disseminating high quality marijuana?

Hey! Theft of music is still theft, and record labels have a right to the benefits of their property....unless, of course, LA county decides that someone else could benefit from it more and decides to give music rights to any given song to a better singer. (In such an event, Michael Bolton may be out of work.)

"Theft of music is still theft..."

Various court precident has clearly established this fact, regardless of RIAA/MPAA propaganda stating otherwise.
